stylists

Alana

Alana started her career with us at Changes, and has been loving it for twenty-three years. She had the amazing opportunity to buy into the business in 2011 and became the sole owner in 2013. She has grown into our Salon Momma (maybe a bit against her will), she takes pride in her salon and has nurtured the growth of our girls, not only as stylists but as women.

As a stylist herself, Alana loves it all! 

Her number one recommend is the Aveda Invati Ultra System, for it’s revitalizing effects on thinning hair. Going through perimenopause, this line has worked great for her.

Being a Cancer, Alana loves cultivating relationships with her guests, having a laugh and making them feel amazing. She is inspired by her husband, her family and her team, who  push her to try new things.

As a Scorpio, Annaliese gravitates towards people, she takes inspiration from their unique styles and personalities. She finds beauty in every conversation and new experience. Her new favourite people have captured her heart, Holland and Vienna, her babies from whom she gets to experience joy, and the new things they show her everyday.

Emma

Emma has been in the hair industry for eighteen years and with us at Changes, eight. She is our go-to effortless, soft, and natural, down to earth girl, and the looks she creates  reflect it. 

Her number one recommend is Aveda’s Botanical Repair Leave-In Treatment, not only for it’s heat protection but how it leaves the hair feeling soft without weighing it down.

Her nature as a Scorpio, has drawn Emma  to exploring life around her. Many amazing trips have expanded her passion for travel,  but no matter where the world takes her, she carries those she loves with her.

Kameron

Starting out as a professional makeup artist and then becoming a licensed hairstylist, Kameron has been in the industry for over twenty five years and joined us at Changes six years ago.
She loves all aspects of hair, whether you’re dreaming of the ultimate rainbow mullet or a delicate sun-kissed glow up, she’s got you covered. Her goal is to create a custom experience for each guest, always keeping features, hair health, and lifestyle top of mind.

Drawing inspiration from film, fashion, and photography, Kameron’s been inspired by stripped back makeup and skin care trends and how they apply to hair. Currently,  she’s obsessed with teaching guests how to bring out their natural curls and texture with only using a few, specially curated products.

 

Her number one recommends are Aveda’s  Be Curly Cowash and the new Miraculous Oil, for their use in this technique.

When Kameron’s not behind the chair, you can find her hanging out with her church and furry family, but one guarantee is that you’ll always find her nose firmly planted in a book.

Kayla

Kayla has been in the hair industry for eleven years now. She joined us at Changes three and a half years ago, and has been an amazing add to our team with her love of colour- blondes, lived in looks and dimensional brunettes. As a virgo, she has high standards for the looks she creates and  works meticulously to achieve them.

Her number one recommends are Aveda’s Nutriplenish Leave-In Conditioner and the Miraculous Oil, both for their hydration and heat protection.

She pulls her creativity from those around her, she loves her team and she is our girls girl. If she’s not in the salon, she’s hiking  a mountain or spending her day on the lake.

Nicole

Nicole has been in the hair industry as a journeyman stylist for thirteen years and recently joined us at Changes last year.
